RUSH A TRANSPORT TO MEXICO WATERS Work Being Pushed to Get the Burford Ready for Dash to Rescue.

National Nw Association) SAX FRANCISCO. April 27. Work of getting the U. S. transport Buford ready 'or her expedition into Mexican waters, along the west Mexican coast, to bring refugees to this port, was rushed with all possible dispatch today. Capt Frank D. Ely. of the quartermasters' department, said that the work of coaling probably would be finished late today. The Buford then will be docked at Hunters Point, to be cleaned. Although it was hoped to have the transport ready for sailing tomorrow, it was reported here that she probably will not be able to get away until Tuesday. Although no marines will be carried on the Buford, rapid fire guns are being placed on board for defense in the event that any Mexican bandit gangs attempt to interfere with her mission. The transport la being fitted vip to carry 500 civilians. The Buford, which is being sent iSouth with the personal approval of President Taft, will carry, in addition , to her Captain, Chas J.- Healy, a civilian as quartermaster, several surgeons and a force of army stewards.. The movements of the vessel will be directed by Claude I. Grant, vice consul and deputy consul-general at. Mexico City, who has been ordered to meet the Buford at San Diego, Cal. Mr. Guy;ant la drawing up the itinerary so that the Buford will touch at all the Mexican ports, on the West coast, where ; American refugees have gathered. After proceeding down the coast to the lower extremity of Lower California, the Buford will enter the Gulf of j Lower California and turn north. It has already been settled that she shall stop at Guayamas, where a number of i Americans are gathered. The latest reports said they were being menaced by brigands posing as ' insurrectos. As there are other bands of American refugees at Tepolbampo, Manzanlllo, Acapulco, Salina Cruz and Mazatlin, it is certain that the ship will touch at these points. The Buford may be Joined by a British Bhip on hor voyage along the coast as it is reported from Mexico City that an English cruiser is enroute to the west coast to succor imperiled British citizens. The state department will be in constant touch with the Buford while she is in Mexican waters. The vessel has been long used as a transport between San 'Francisco and Manila. She is a staunch craft and filled up with accommodations for a regiment of soldiers. A great amount of . commisary supplies such as food,. clothing and blankets are being taken aboard here. FRAUNBERG CASE In the matter of the application of Roy H. Fraunberg-for a license to sell Intoxicating liquors in Jackson township, a motion of remonstrants to strike from -the files of the court the applicant's verified plea to the remonstrants, was filed in the Wayne circuit court this morning in the appeal which was taken some time ago to .the circuit court from the commissioners' court.

Rear Admiral Chauncey Thomas, who was recently relieved of command of the Pacific fleet by Rear Admiral Southerland, was placed on the retired list today on account of age. Admiral Thomas was born in New York in 1850 and at the age of 17 was appointed to the Naval academy from Pennsylvania. During his long career he has had more sea service and less shore duty than most of his naval contemporaries. He reached the grade of rear admiral in 1910. since which time he has been division and fleet commander of the Pacific fleet. City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. COOPER John Wesley Cooper, aged seventy-three years of age, died this morning at his home, 1142 North J Etreet. He is survived by a widow, two 6on8, Alva and Roy, both of this city. The funeral will be held Monday morning at ten o'clock from the M. E. church at Whitewater. Indiana. Friends may call any time. Burial in the Whitewater cemetery.

CLEANING DAY HINTS The following proverbs are taken from the "Book of Gopher" by Mrs. T. O. Winters. Billboards cover a multitude of tin cans. One medical inspection in time saves nine doctor's bills. Many play grounds make lighthearted children. All that's garbage is not collected. Uncleanlinecs is next to godliness. Look out for the children and the men will look out for themselves. To the smoky city belongs the spoiled merchandise. It's an ill milk that brings no baby good. Inspectors that can inspect and won't Inspect should be made to Inspect. Tou can get a law through the legislature, but you can't get It enforced. Where there's a will to make a better city there's a way.

EXAMINATION OF COUNTY TEACHERS The regular monthly teachers examination of applicants for teachers' licenses in Wayne county Is being held today in the office of the county superintendent, Charles O. Williams. About seventy-five applicants are taking the examination. Today was also the date specified for the taking of examinations by applicants for a teachers' state license. However, no one appeared to take the examination. This is considered one of the most difficult examinations to pass and very few apply for the license. TAKES SON-IN-LAW IN AS A PARTNER Announcement was made today by W. H. Bartel, Jr., proprietor of a local book and office supply store on Main street, that he had taken in his son-in-law, G. W. Rene, as partner in the firm, which in the future will be known as the Bartel & Rohe company. Mr. Rohe has been employed in St. Louis by a carriage manufacturing concern.

While in country villages there may be only a single Bermon on Sunday, In the larger communities there will be a full week's program, consisting of lectures, exhibitions, meetings of voluntary health societies and a general inspection of factories and' workships. To Be Real Actor. Sinking one's identity in character parts on the stage is but an Insignificant branch of acting. The displaying of a personality beneath the makeup, the Incarnation of a written character In flesh and blood, by a sheer act of genius on the part of the actor In filling a part with his own personality tempered to the limitations of his role the creation. In short, of a living, visible and intelligible being, is the grand goal of the actor's art. How well Richard Mansfield knew that art! In his performances you saw an Impenetrable makeup; but, though Mansfield was hidden, behind the disguise were the brains of the greatest dramatic genius of our generation, fashioning steadily and superbly a character as he conceived it out of the materials placed at his command by the playwright. Henry Kolker in National Magazine. Trying to Be Witty. They were sitting in the parlor with the lights turned low. The hour was pretty late. He and she had talked about everything, from the weather to the latest shows. He yawned, and she yawned, but he made no attempt to move toward home, and she was becoming weary. At last she said: "I heard a noise outside Just now. I wonder if it could be burglars?" Of course he tried to be funny. "Maybe it was the night falling.' he said. "Oh, I think notr she exclaimed. "More likely it was the day breaking!" Hasty exit of he. Pearson's Weekly. Scriptural Place Names. England can boast that no other country possesses so many Scriptural place names as it does.
